  • You see it all the time, an expensive RC getting busted at the skatepark. Is it wrong to test the duribility of any RC at a skatepark? Do you do it? More importantly, SHOULD you do it? Lets chat about it. Its not for everyone, but sometimes it can be so worth it! Come watch the Xmaxx get sent so you can scratch that itch.

    Some good points covered. Maybe you see my community post/poll recently about the same topic. If not out of 523 votes 37% Approve of these durability tests, 52% Didn't approve and 11% Had alternative opinions. Like I mentioned I have no problem with people enjoying their trucks the way they want to but it starts getting to me when channels label something as bad after a bad landing on concrete. Automatically the RC is Trash and written off! Completely unfair as there are many factors to consider not just durability. I also think it can be a bad image for the younger generation who watch some of those send to the moon type videos and think its normal to treat stuff in this way. I'm not one to make blanket requests which all channels should follow. I fully support other channels do as they please but its not something I will support on my channel anymore. I think its an unfair test to label an RC as bad after smashing it about at a skatepark. I know more than half of my audience dont approve so I wont be doing those types of vids and the other 37% have more than enough channels out there who do that stuff so they can go watch them :) . I wont follow the crowd just for the views or just because everyone else is doing it so its must be right! UA-cam is about being individual, getting your own voice heard and backing yourself all the way which is why I am always more than happy to speak out and voice my opinion which a lot of people have grown to enjoy about me. Nothing against you or anyone else bro just my personal opinion that i wanted to voice and so glad quite a few people agreed me with (Proof im not making a fuss for no reason). I hope you have a successful 2024 and its good to see you are steadily on your way to 20k! Enjoy man 💯😎👍

My kids used to watch Wrestling (as did I), but never once did they jump off the top rope at school and elbow drop their class mate because they saw others doing it lol. If a Kid takes their RC Car to a skate park and smashes it up, it's their fault... nobody else's :)

    I’ve been in the hobby about a year and a half. Relatively Zero experience in anything automotive. I started rc’ ing with the help of UA-camrs like yourself. So many videos of everyone sending rc cars. I quickly built a ramp (using techniques from your video) and sent my wl toys 12428 and my Holyton brushed 1/12th Amazon special. They both broke instantly. My spirit was crushed. I started to question if the hobby was for me. After reflecting I realized like you at the start of this video that sending your rc at a skatepark or a crazy ramp is simply a waste of money (at least for beginners). For me the life lesson learned was risk and reward. With this mentality I can find a healthier balance to my driving and Ive grown more in love with the hobby day by day. Anyway thanks so much for the awesome video and overall great work you do 👍✌🏼

    Dude I’m with you! I almost always mention that I’m too hard on my RCs and that others don’t need to be, but tests like this are an excellent indicator of what might break for them. I always mention the dangers of cold too. Awesome job! I made a bad purchase as my very first “expensive” RC because the videos I watched were too easy on it. No good skateparks by me so I make use with ramps and curbs 🤣🤣.

    So just before I did a bunch of upgrades on my Kraton 4S I took it to a skate park and bashed it until it was in pieces. Knowing it was about to get completely torn down and reassembled anyway. That session was the most fun I'd ever had in all my RC adventures.
    So I do believe that skateparks CAN serve a purpose for the hobby.

    Thanks for uploading this nice video! I’ve been in the hobby for around 3 months (ARRMA Granite 3s V3 and and MJX H16BM) UA-camrs like you always inspire me to run my RCs, even tho where I live there’s no local hobby shop and parts delivery lasts around 2 weeks I think this hobby is super cool. First time I went to a skatepark I broke my rear shock tower, I felt a little sad but then I decided to see the good side of the hobby and is that you can replace any part that is broken. 😊

    Park bashing is definitely an assumed risk. To me it was obvious from watching Talbot that things were gonna break no matter how much you spent on them so dont take anything you dont mind destroying. This is the whole reason I have some little HBX's. Theyre durable enough and cheap enough that a complete demolition isnt too painful

  • @rcjunior888
    @rcjunior888 5 місяців тому +3

    It also varies on cars. If your sending On-Roads like Monster Trucks. It’s literally abusing the car. Or jumping a Crawler at 10ft. Every car has a limit no matter the circumstance. Most Badgers pretty much are able to conquer these Parks. But if you sending a Bandit like a X-Maxx. It’s abusing it.

  • @VS666
    @VS666 5 місяців тому +3

    Great points all around. Generally, my rule is it either has to have a ton of suspension travel and wheels and tires to back it up and or be cheap enough that I don’t care if it breaks, because we know it will at this point. The two cars I will take to a skate park are the Arrma Gorgon and the Grom both built to handle big jumps, and overall very durable and inexpensive to fix. The first five or 10 minutes I usually spend trying to do fun technical stuff and then when I know the batteries are getting close I will usually try to go for big air knowing that I’m about to pack up 😂

Just this one more jump and ill pack it up! 😅 In my case i landed wrong off a jump and broke the rear bulkhead...hahaha.
    That said, very well articulated breakdown on skate parks. It really does come down to risk vs reward! 😜 Keep on sendin it bud! 🫡 Take care.

    I was once one of those naive noobs who thought that I could tackle skate parks like the great UA-camrs did. Sent my trucks 30 and 40 ft in the air with nothing but concrete to soften the landing. Destroyed parts, electronics and lipos, but kept coming back for more. Fast forward to now and I still bash at skateparks, but with a little less vigor than the days of ole. They don't have to be death sentences for rc's, and I think you showed that in this video. A broken suspension arm in -10 could happen anywhere to anyone, but they sure wouldn't be smiling like you were when you were done. Bash on brother

    First thing you need too know about rc cars, they break...no matter if it's on a skate park or a carpet track. I am personally not a big fan of skate parks but some light bashing is fun with the right car. For testing i prefer rough terrain, a 1:5 scale of road track or a bmx track. On a skate park the car will brake no matter what, especially the youtuber testing way lol But yeah it's your choice how to enjoy the car, either by caging it behind glass or sending it to the moon.

    I actually just made a video on the topic are UA-camrs ruining the hobby. Not exactly what you pointed out but fairly close. I think too many too the moon channels and total carnage are scaring people from the hobby like you said there are limitations and if you drive it normal for the most part its going to last you dont have to launch them 50 ft in the air to have fun and you dont need a ton of m2c parts, a new esc and bigger motor to run and have fun. They are already expensive and capable out of the box if you want to launch them except it will break and maybe you need more gears or a esc for air control but its not needed to go have fun. Go have fun thats what it as all about dont let carnage channels scare you.

    Same, just want to have fun, I cringe every time though. Took it out just before we hit the low temps, still broke an upper control arm on the ARRMA. Actually, I'm surprised I've had all the original arms for the last year. It's an Outcast 6S EXB version so I'm not sure if the arms are more beefy or not? I need a new body big time though, just hate the crazy costs of vacuum formed plastic.

    Skate parks are silly, at least for people who do not live and breath RC. we treat RC as fun a few times a month, we are not experts and we don't want to be. Its all bout racing around and having fun. If we start "sending" our cars into orbit to come crashing down on a concrete surface they will break, no doubt. Why would you do that? What is the point of doing that? The only reason skate parks are on you tube is click bait, nothing more. Its difficult to find a location to run RC's that is not a skate park that looks exciting/interesting to watch on a small screen. So, leave the costly RC nonsense to the you tubers who do this for a living, for everyone else leave the skate parks alone and your wallet will thank you.
